Haymakers..
Haymakers 1, 2 and 3...
First one was just a sketch of what was outside my window, it was so dark outside but we have a street lamp just outside the house. I was so tired I drew this upside down in my sketchbook! Ha!
Second one, I woke up sooooooooo tired and just thought to y self GOLD.
The light looked golden when i first opened my eyes, so I grabbed my gold pen took a different perspective out the window and just doodled. I really just liked the lamp.
It got a lil messy with the silver, some may call it art..

Third one.
I was awake already so felt to make lil monsters..
I saw a couple of paints infront of me so i mixed it with water, plopped some on the paper and blew away.
it took like 20 minutes to dry then just added lil characteristics..
I call this piece Haymakin' Monsters!
Random acts Channel 4 Brief..
Channel 4 Brief
Proposal by Nicola Dela Cruz
A three-minute film for Random Acts strand on Channel 4.
My Genre: Animation and Music with sound effects.
Storyline:
Life of a £5 note.
-Scene starts off with a £5 note. The Queen winks.
In this short animation we will see the life of a £5 note. It’s travel from hand-to-hand, pocket-to-pocket and till to till. Showing different people that touch, scrunch up and even look after the £5. Making people realise the short space of time owning the money. You see how quick money circulates all around and doesn’t stay with a person for too long.
In this short animation, we will travel with the £5.
See all it sees. From the horrors and hardships, to the love and friendships.
See what kind of people spend it quick and the people who tried to spare it.
This is my concept.
Life of a £5 note.
Pay to Play take two..
"Redesign the £1 coin to express global financial climate"
I re-did/edited this project.
The Queen was too neat and didn't really represent much on my previous coin.
This time i distorted it. She's melting away.
Our financial climate is crumbling away, everything is raising prices but the money isn't there. This country sucking the money dry.
The colour change is an attempt to communicate the pound coin fading and looking dry.

Graphic Design Cookbook..
Banana 'Jazz LET' N
N is for Nicola! :)
This project was not easy at all, and i was beyond proud of the way my homemade tin ddnt fall apart and actually produced a baked cake in my desired font.
Overall - it was an achievement as baking isn't my strongest skill.

Meet Me On the Corner Edit..
My cultural map, looking more of a map than my previous efforts.
I added a title, enlarged the little illustrations, connected them with some arrows, showing me moving round, just like in the cartoons, and a start and finish.
My theme is still childlike illustration, montage, simple yet fairly busy, cartoon map.
Its a lil congested as the day itself was a very busy day!
But the pictures remind me, it weren't all bad.. =)
